Most replica swords look like props. The Iron Oath Handmade Medieval Longsword does not. This is a full 36–39 inch hand-forged carbon steel longsword built with the details that serious collectors and history enthusiasts actually wan a high-polish blade, Celtic knotwork engraved cross-guard, long leather-wrapped grip, and a classic wheel pommel.
The blade is forged from carbon steel and finished to a bright high polish. A center fuller groove runs the length of the blade historically used to reduce weight while keeping blade strength. The result is a blade that looks and feels like a genuine medieval knight's sword.
The wide cross-guard is engraved with detailed Celtic and Norse knotwork patterns on both arms a design motif used on real medieval swords of the 12th–15th centuries. The natural tan leather-wrapped grip is long enough for a two-hand hold, and the round wheel pommel balances the blade perfectly for display or handling.

HISTORY OF THE MEDIEVAL LONGSWORD
The longsword emerged as the dominant sword design in medieval Europe between the 13th and 17th centuries. Unlike earlier single-hand swords, the longsword featured a longer grip that allowed both one-hand and two-hand use — earning it the alternative name "bastard sword" because it sat between a one-handed sword and a full two-handed great sword.
Knights and men-at-arms across England, France, Germany, and the Holy Roman Empire carried longswords as their primary blades. The Oakeshott typology a classification system developed by historian Ewart Oakeshott catalogued over 13 distinct longsword types based on blade shape, cross-guard style, and pommel design. The Iron Oath is inspired by the Type XVa profile: a long, slender, high-polish blade built for reach and precision.
Celtic and Norse knotwork on sword cross-guards was common among medieval smiths in Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia. These engravings carried symbolic meaning — representing eternity, strength, and the interconnectedness of fate. Today, swords with this design are among the most sought-after by collectors of medieval historical replicas.

- Wipe blade clean and dry after each handling
- Apply light blade oil to carbon steel to prevent rust

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a medieval longsword?
A medieval longsword is a straight, double-edged sword with a grip long enough for one or two hands. It was the primary sword of European knights and soldiers from the 13th to 17th centuries. The Iron Oath Medieval Longsword is a historically inspired replica of this classic design hand-forged carbon steel, Celtic engraved cross-guard, and a full 36–39 inch length.
Why is the longsword also called a bastard sword?
The term "bastard sword" comes from the sword's in-between size longer than a standard one-handed sword but shorter than a full two-handed great sword. It could be used comfortably with one or two hands, making it versatile on the battlefield. The Iron Oath features a long two-hand grip that reflects this classic bastard sword proportion.
How heavy is a real medieval longsword?
Most historical medieval longswords weighed between 2.5 and 4 pounds (1.1–1.8 kg). Despite their size, they were designed to be fast and well-balanced. The Iron Oath Medieval Longsword, with its 36–39 inch carbon steel blade and wheel pommel, is built with proper proportions that give it a balanced feel for display and handling.
What does the Celtic engraving on the cross-guard mean?
Celtic and Norse knotwork engravings were commonly used on medieval swords across Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia. The interlocking patterns symbolized eternity, strength, and fate. Swords featuring this engraving style are historically accurate to the medieval period and are among the most popular designs with collectors of historical replica swords.
Is the Iron Oath Medieval Longsword good for display?
Yes. The high-polish carbon steel blade, ornate engraved cross-guard, and full 36–39 inch length make this one of the most visually impressive display swords available. It looks outstanding on a wall mount, display stand, or in a glass cabinet. It is also a popular gifting choice for history enthusiasts, collectors, and Renaissance fair fans.

Best dish detergent ever!
This is the best dish washing detergent we have purchased. The last one did not foam for long and in a cold kitchen turned solid. This one lasts for a good while and retains its fluid flow. It also smells very nice.

Great, light product.
I really love that this product is from an ancient recipe from JR Watkins.
Not heavy and soapy, I have sprayers that I use to spray those items that need a quick wash.
From plant-derived liquids, this stuff removes any food products as well as any heavy liquid detergent I have ever used.
Been using it for several years now and see no reason to stop.

My Favorite
I've been using this dish detergent for months. I just love it. The light fresh lemon scent and the fact that it does not give you dish-pan hands like those name brand grease cutting detergents. You have to spray more of this on a greasy surface and wash 2, maybe 3x depending on the surface, but it will cut grease. Love the spray bottle too. If the sprayer gets wonky I've found that if I remove the white screen from the sprayer nozzle it works better.

Works well at removing grime
My mother-in-law convinced me to start using the Dawn version of this, which has been a game-changer with the dishes. When I saw this product for less money, I decided to try it and it works just as well. Smells nice, cute on the counter, and cuts through the toughest of grease and grime.
